My Question or Issue

 

Good evening, today I signed the 60 day free premium subscription with an account that I realized then that it was connected to Facebook, I wanted to cancel my account and subscription, and then create a new account with the same email as written on the guide to spotify, after following all the steps, I managed to cancel the subscription, but every time I tried to cancel my account, always following the guide with various links indicated I was sent back to the support page so unable to cancel my account. What can I do to delete my account and then create a new one with the same email?  Yours sincerely

Hey @marioanto, welcome to the community.

 

Hope youโ€™re doing great!

 

I'd recommend taking a look at the Closing account support article for steps to close your account.

 

Keep in mind when you close your account, you wonโ€™t have access to the following: 

  • Your username, it canโ€™t be used with Spotify again.
  • Your playlists, followers, and everything saved in Your Library.
  • If you have the student discount, you wonโ€™t be able to apply it to another account until 12-months have elapsed since you signed up for it.

 

 

If youโ€™re having issues closing your account, Iโ€™d recommend doing this user another browser, or incognito mode. 

 

Let me know how it goes ๐Ÿ™‚

Thanks for your answer. I ask you one more thing, how much time passes between sending the contact form for canceling your account and the actual deletion of the premium account ?

@marioanto,

 

Thanks for the reply. 

 

Itโ€™s only possible to close an account if itโ€™s on a free-ad supported version. If youโ€™re on the Premium version, youโ€™d have to cancel that subscription first, then wait until your account reverts to free. 

 

If youโ€™re on a free-ad supported version; the support article I provided in my last reply should tell you the steps to close your account. Keep in mind that this process is permanent and irreversible. 

 

I hope this helps.

Excuse I am badly me express, I intended to say how much time passes between the annulment of the subscription and the cancellation of the account premium? Since I have annulled the subscription to the 15.30 Italian Time and I have asked the cancellation of the account 16.00 Italian Time and I have not gotten the cancellation of my account yet.  Excuses my bad knowledge of the English language

@marioanto,

 

Thanks for the reply.

 

This depends on your subscription end date. Youโ€™d need to wait for your account to revert to free before you can close your account.

 

Could you send me a screenshot of what happens when you attempt to close the account? Please do hide sensitive info when posting to the community.

 

Keep me posted ๐Ÿ™‚

Thanks for the reply. 

 

Looks like your plan expires on 10/22/18, so you wonโ€™t be able to cancel your account until that date, since it requires your plan to be on the free - ad supported version.

 

You can still use your Premium features up until that date; after that date your account reverts to free, then youโ€™ll be able to close your account. 

 

Hope this helps.

thank you so much for your help. Unfortunately I did not understand that it was necessary to wait until the indicated date. Yours truly Mario
